Explanation

Expansion on Bug #1116: Melee Melee Attacks Not Registering Consistently.

I've witnessed and heard players melee me and not lost health and I've felt it happen myself. I don't have this recorded. However I do have a video of a case where I felt I should've traded in OITC but didn't. Losing this battle felt deeply irritating because it was clearly won and lost on ping. The trades in SG1 were fun and I often lose or win melees that would've felt fairer as a trade. It also feels janky from the losers PoV, because they get the thunk sound but get denied the kill.
